The "Taste of Maine " is a great way to sample all of their seafood . Lobster , Shrimp & Crab roll . Rolls are perfectly buttered & toasted. The lobster is the best option in my opinion though!

Had a lobster roll&half lobster Tail & lobster bisque Soup ,all Excellent & tasty,lobster on the roll is cold but Delicious,entrance has few steps down its hard with a stroller but they offer to help.

Somewhat small portions for the price, but everything is so good. Try the Taste of Maine to get a little of everything (lobster , crab , and shrimp half rolls). Chowder is delicious.

If you love a chunky lobster roll with large pieces of meat then this is the place for you. You won't get any of that loaded-up-with-mayo, tuna-salad-consistency here--no, sir! A+ Don't miss it.

Brendan Rastetter

Their lobster roll makes me long for Maine. It's fantastic. A generous amount of lobster meat with mayo on a delicious roll. Wash it down with a bottle of ginger brew.

Maddie Lippincott

FANTASTIC. Highly recommend the trio -- the lobster was great but the shrimp and crab rolls are something you cannot miss out on. Great little location, not crowded . Great for all kinds of occassions.

If you are in Philly you should go to Luke's! Try the one with cheese and classic lobster roll . Also they have delicious lobster soup .

Tim Bradshaw

I Love Fresh Seafood and they definitely have it. Looking forward to the additions of the menu in November!

The Taste Sheriff

Fantastic taste but $30 for a tiny lobster roll and chips (& self-service) that leaves you hungry makes me feel like I’m paying for Luke’s lifestyle expenses ...!

Ann M

A tucked away, authentic Maine lobster shack. Buy a beer at the Foodery on Sansom then hunker down for a classic Maine lobster roll . Thank you Luke for expanding to Philly!

Jay Gao

It's expensive but so worth it. If you think about it, it's so much lobster meat on one roll that you wonder if they even profit. Highly recommend it

Pete DeCarolis

You're here for the lobster rolls ; great, almost hidden find in Center City .

Lisa Randolph

This is a super-friendly quick stop. Food is delicious and fresh. Even the pickles are to-die-for!

Tara St Laurent

The Maine is great and let's you try all three of their sandwich options.

Great atmosphere and shellfish . The clam chowder is amazing. A little pricy , but it's so worth it.

Sara Taylor

Crab grilled cheese was amazing! Definitely recommend.

Hachikaoru

The lobster roll is awesome❤️

Ikai Lan

Happy to say it's as consistently delicious as the ones in NYC. It's about 2x larger than the largest one in NYC.

Amazing taste and cool location. Portion could be bigger.

Pedro Fuentes

The lobster sandwich (try the 3 sandwich plate). You will come back for more.

Get the Lobster Combo to get the true taste of New England with Cape Cod chips and a Maine Root soda .

Lobster roll was good stuff. Better than the crab

Great food, terrible customer service. It should be common sense not to talk shit about your customers, especially if they're sitting right next to the cash wrap .
